Spring Snow in Denver

I took this shot from my front porch a few years ago on about March 20th. We are supposed to get a very light snow this Friday, but in spring in Colorado you can get surprises!

Springtime in the Rockies. You never quite know what's coming next.

I saw that there is snow in the forecast as I am watching the weather in prep to heading back there next week. And you are right, the forecast can say less than an inch of snow and you end up with a foot of snow!

Nice one Larry.

That looks more like Jan/Feb in some years here in PNW.

Hi Jameel, we expect that kind of weather in January and February and brace for it; but in March and April the storms are usually bracteted by nice 70-80 degree sunny days!!!

One of the worst snowstorms I ever had to dig my way out of in Salt Lake City came in the month of April - over 20". And it was heavy wet snow.
